A review by heatherclark
Abigail Adams by Cassandra Campbell, Woody Holton
5.0
I thoroughly enjoyed learning about Abigail Adams' life. Woody Holton does a wonderful job showing the good and bad of this notable historical figure. She fought for women's rights her entire life ("Remember the ladies"), but also held racist beliefs even though she owned no slaves.
She was dedicated to the care of others and personally took care (financially and otherwise) of many both in her family and her community.
I enjoyed a woman's perspective on the founding of our nation and the aftermath of the revolution, as we typically just hear of the men involved.
